Jan Høydahl commented on TIKA-490:
----------------------------------
Either solution is OK by me.
But from my experience classpath problems in application servers can cause a
headache, and therefore I tried to be as explicit as possible.
It would of course work to put a tika.language.properties file on classpath as
well, if you know it's earlier in classpath than the tika jar.
Or we could name the jar-internal properties file
tika.language.default.properties, and let people override through
tika.language.properties :)
I'll leave the decision up to you. Remove the override if you feel strong about
it.

> Currently the Tika LanguageIdentifier loads language profiles thorugh a
> hardcoded static block in the java code.
> It would be better to make this configurable, so you could add your own
> languages without recompiling.
> Suggested approach:
> Remove the static code block loading all languages. Instead look for a
> tika.languageidentification.properties file on classpath.
> Now the user can simply make his/her own (additional) language profile files,
> put them on the classpath together with a properties file and off you go!
> Also, once you make it configurable, there might be an issue of having the
> profiles as static members, as you will force the same behaviour for the
> whole VM. A static Map of Maps could solve this.
